FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Arabic Matrix Patina Wholecut Shoes by Que Shebley have been awarded the prestigious Silver A' Design Award in the Footwear, Shoes and Boots Design category for 2025. This accolade is reserved for designs that demonstrate exceptional creativity, technical mastery, and a unique artistic vision. The winning shoes are a testament to Shebley's commitment to redefining luxury footwear by bridging centuries-old Arabic artistry with contemporary design and innovation.
Meticulously crafted from premium Italian crust leather, the shoes feature a striking matrix of engraved Arabic calligraphy and modern symbols, representing a dialogue between tradition and progress. Each pair is finished with a hand-applied patina using natural dyes, resulting in a lustrous, one-of-a-kind finish that enhances the depth and individuality of the design. The refined silhouette, soft chisel toe, and structured last are complemented by a closed-channel leather sole and a durable metal toe tap, ensuring both elegance and long-lasting performance.
The creation process involved extensive research into Arabic typography, historical motifs, and modern design trends. The intricate engravings were developed using a matrix-like sequence that subtly incorporates mathematical symbolism, reflecting the designer's dedication to storytelling through visual art. Employing the Goodyear welt technique, each shoe is constructed for flexibility, comfort, and durability, adapting to the wearer's movements over time. The result is a wearable masterpiece that elevates any ensemble, embodying both cultural heritage and forward-thinking craftsmanship.
The Arabic Matrix Patina Wholecut Shoes not only highlight Que Shebley's technical and artistic expertise but also exemplify the brand's mission to empower consumers with bespoke luxury and meaningful design. This award-winning creation stands as a symbol of innovation, cultural pride, and the enduring power of art in fashion.
